[ some of you might have seen this username on the network before. she isn't a stranger to responding to other people's messages, nor to holding private conversation but as for addressing the entire network, well. this is certainly a first time.

peggy carter is in her office in the riverview police force. it's a slow afternoon, which is the only reason for this little message, really. ]

They're really quite attached to their celebrations aren't they. If I have to secure another event, be it a dance ball, a speed dating evening or anything that involves ribbons, glitter, gifts and large, outdoor parties, I fear I may have to file a complaint. Honestly now, this is getting out hand.

[ no one needs this amount of cheer, surely. ]

More importantly, I am searching for someone who might understand a thing or two about what makes these little devices tick.

[ well that's a very curious username, isn't it? her own is straight to the point but others seem to be ever so creative with theirs. ]

Not at all, I fear. This kin of technology hasn't thrived in the year 1946. Not on my Earth, anyway. I understand that changes between universes.

[ curiouser and curiouser, as carroll once wrote. ]

[He just couldn't help himself with his.]

I've started noticing it myself. What are your thoughts on it so far?

[mannerism]

People seem very dependent on them. I can see why.

[ where would they be if they had this sort of technology? but peggy carter knows what this means; everything that's available to her would also be available to the people she tries to put behind bars. ]

I don't much like being dependent on something I don't understand, however.

[super_sane]

They are pretty handy. Some may say too handy.

That's understandable. Has anyone taken the time to explain any of it to you?

[mannerism]

It's a work in process but yes, someone has. chips an electric wires and a basic programme. I understand the foundations of it all.

[ but it's not there yet. she's a creature of espionage. these things can be used against her, she wants to know how to keep the flow of information safe.

that's the heart of the matter, really. but that's for her to know. let them think she'd rather understand modern technology, most would. ]
